The new rule effectively bars players such as Durbanville Cricket Club’s Jaco Castle and Milnerton Cricket Club’s Robin van Harte from participating in the Western Province Veterans Cricket Association league.

Castle played in the 2021-22 WPVCA league and 2021-22 WPCA premier league. Van Harte has played in the WPVCA league and first division A in the same season, too.
